Mens journal recently released the 50 greatest guy movies of all time and the number one choice was Dirty Harry. My question is do you agree with that choice and if not what do you think it is.

captain-laughter,
It's up there....but my favorite gut movie is Paul Newman's "Slap Shot".
Who can forget the Hanson Brothers or "Ogie" Ogylthorp.

rapfam3,
Naw that was the list that was refered to in the Mens Journal ,I've only seen about half these flicks

bingolong,
That list is hard to argue with. I only've seen half the flicks there. My personal favorite though is Thief with james Caan directed by Michael Mann, Any Michael Mann film works actually, Manhunter, Heat, Insider, First Mad Max should be on that list.
Best line in all those flicks "Im the last guy in the world you want to fuck with." Caan in Thief
